Now my question: I have a tiny termostatic fan heater, which gets my living room nice and toasty in about 30 seconds and my living room being quite well insulated keeps the heat in for up to a hour. Now say I use this small heater per day for around 30 minutes a day at peak rates, is this going to be cheaper than using the storage heater?

I know I won't know for sure until I get another electricity monitor but would like it if one of the knowledgeable people on here could give me a educated guess!

You managed to work out average daily consumption for yourself, so you are quite competent to do this without an electricity monitor for yourself. Just try it for a week. It is bound to be more accurate to your situation than a load of guesses.
